Exeter City vs Oxford United - Defender Christian Ribeiro set to return for Exeter



Posted Tuesday, February 23, 2016 by PA

Exeter should be able to welcome back Christian Ribeiro for the visit of Oxford.

The defender suffered minor concussion during the 2-0 defeat by York last Tuesday and missed Saturday's 1-1 draw against Newport as a precaution.

Midfielder Ryan Harley has played the last two matches since returning from a hip injury and could be rested.

The clash is a milestone for long-serving boss Paul Tisdale as it will be his 500th competitive match in charge.

Oxford have injury concerns with top scorer Kemar Roofe struggling due to a groin problem.

Ryan Taylor, Jake Wright and Jordan Evans are sidelined while boss Michael Appleton has a host of new knocks to deal with after Saturday's defeat by Accrington.

Appleton has not revealed who the latest injury doubts are, but he is likely to have to name a youthful bench.

The U's remain in the automatic promotion places despite losing their last two matches.
